Dear Folks,

Let's discover this EXHIBITION -

An Inuit art cooperative in the Canadian Great North
Kinngait, Nunavut—The Claude Baud and Michel Jacot Collection
Until January 17th

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the founding of the territory of Nunavut, in Canada, and the 65th anniversary of the West Baffin Cooperative in Kinngait (Cape Dorset, Baffin Island), the Canadian Cultural Centre is redeploying its historic exhibition, Fantastic Kenojuak Ashevak (created in Protected content . This includes adding a new group of prints and sculptures from the Claude Baud and Michel Jacot collection. The exhibition illustrates both the wealth of a cooperative that is unique in the world and the vision of a Franco-Swiss collector duo who have been helping to raise the profile of Canadian Inuit art in France for decades.

This exceptional ensemble is complemented here by a body of new works by the now-famous Shuvinai Ashoona, granddaughter of Pitseolak Ashoona, a major figure in the first generation of artists from the Kinngait cooperative. She is also part of the Baud-Jacot collection.

In partnership with the West Baffin Cooperative, Kinngait, Nunavut

I am looking forward to meeting you there.
